Answer:

5 and 25

Step-by-step explanation:

let the son's age be x then the father's age is x + 20

In 5 years

son = x + 5 and father = x + 20 + 5 = x + 25

Then

x + 25 = 3(x + 5) ← father is three times as old as son

x + 25 = 3x + 15 ( subtract x from both sides )

25 = 2x + 15 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

10 = 2x ( divide both sides by 2 )

5 = x and x + 20 = 5 + 20 = 25

si=on is 5 and father is 25

Answer:

The son is 5 and the father is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do this using  Algebra.

Let the son be x years old.

Then the father's age is x + 20 years.

After 5 years the father's age is x + 25 and the son is x + 5 years.

So we can write the equation:

x + 25 = 3(x + 5)

x + 25 = 3x + 15

25 - 15 = 3x - x

10 = 2x

x = 5.

So the father's present age is 20 + 5 = 25 and the son is 5 years old.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation of the line (y=Mx+b) through the given point:
OleMash [197]

Answer:

<h2>          y = 2x + 6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

M=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\dfrac{2-0}{-2-(-3)}=\dfrac21=2

y = 2x + b  passes through point (-3, 0), so:

0 = 2(-3) + b

0 = -6 + b

b = 6

Therefore the equation:  <u>y = 2x + 6</u>

The time it takes to fly from Los Angeles to New York varies inversely as the speed of the plane. If
makvit [3.9K]

Answer: speed is  540 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:   Lets mark speed as v.

Because distenace is same, you can mark   6 h · 900 km/h = 10 h · v

and v = 5400 km / 10 h = 540 km/h.

Or using inverse proportions :   10 h / 6 h  =  v / 900 km/h  .

Before multiplying you turn lastproportion around :

10 h / 6 h = 600 km/ h / v   ,which gives   10 v = 6 · 900 km/h

and result is same

A rectangle has perimeter 28cm. Its area is 42sq.cm. Determine the dimensions of the rectangle. Include a diagram in your soluti
yawa3891 [41]

The dimensions of the rectangle are: b=9.65 cm and h=4.35 cm or b=4.35 cm and h= 9.65 cm.

<h3>Quadrilaterals</h3>

There are different types of quadrilaterals, for example, square, rectangle, rhombus, trapezoid, and parallelogram.  Each type is defined accordingly to its length of sides and angles. For example, in a rectangle,  the opposite sides are equal and parallel and their interior angles are equal to 90°.

The area of a rectangle is equal to base x height (A=bh). The perimeter of a geometric figure is the sum of its sides. Thus, for a rectangle, the perimeter is 2b+2h.

<h3>System of Linear Equations</h3>

System of linear equations is the given term math for two or more equations with the same variables. The solution of these equations represents the point at which the lines intersect.

The question gives:

Perimeter=28cm

Area= 42 cm²

If the perimeter is the sum of all sides of the rectangle, you have:

Perimeter= 2b+2h=28

If the area of the rectangle is 42cm², you have:

Area=bh=42 cm²

You can write a system of linear equations.

2b+2h=28 (1)

bh=42 (2)

From equation 2, you have  b=\frac{42}{h}. Then, you can replace it in equation 1.

2*\frac{42}{h}+2h=28 \\ \\ 84+2h^2=28h\\ \\ 2h^2-28h+84=0 \; dividing\; by\; 2\\ \\ h^2-14h+42=0

Now, you should solve the quadratic equation.

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-14\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\cdot \:42}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-14\right)\pm \:2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}

h_1=\frac{-\left(-14\right)+2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7+\sqrt{7}=9.65 cm

h_2=\frac{-\left(-14\right)-2\sqrt{7}}{2\cdot \:1}=7-\sqrt{7}=4.35cm

If h1=9.65 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{9.65} =4.35 cm, and if  h2=4.35 cm, then b_1=\frac{42}{4.35} =9.65 cm.
